The Stanford Heart Transplant Program has the accumulated wisdom of more than fifty years of research and patient care experience.
Our doctors and scientists work, collaboratively, to develop many innovations and continue to advance new techniques in transplant surgery.
Unfortunately, some of us will experience losses (of family members, friends, other patients) as we move through the transplantation process. Here are some sites for self-help groups which may be of benefit. Please consider contacting a mental health professional if symptoms become impairing or overwhelming.
Kara is a fantastic organization for compassionate support.

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluate a new medical approach, device, drug, or other treatment. As a Stanford Health Care patient, you may have access to the latest, advanced clinical trials.
Open trials refer to studies currently accepting participants. Closed trials are not currently enrolling, but may open in the future.
Your doctor may request an evaluation by a heart failure specialist, who will review your medical records and determine if additional tests are necessary.
Patients being considered for a heart transplant will be referred to the Cardiomyopathy Center.
Self-referrals are accepted.
Bring results from prior lab tests, if requested.
